Eagle's Nest - Lake Michigan Private Beach & Year-Round Hot Tub! Manistee, MI
Fall/Winter 2025 & Spring 2026 - with off-season discounts!
Summer 2026 - NEWLY OPENED
(May 30-June 10 & June 14-June 20 w/ 3 day min; June 20-27 w/ week required; June 27-July 3 w/ 6 days required; Aug 8-15, Aug 15-22, Aug 22-29 OPEN - w/ week required)
Welcome to Eagles’ Nest! This highly acclaimed 3 bedroom, 2 ½ bath and amenity-rich Lake Michigan vacation home, boasts private stairs to a beautiful beach on Lake Michigan! With 80 steps to Lake Michigan’s shores and a recently added seawall, this is one of a few homes that have an accessible, beautiful beach!
Outside, you will enjoy a year-round private hot tub built into a wrap-around deck, a pergola overlooking unforgettable sunsets, hiking on 140 acres of marked trails, NEW living room furniture, outdoor furniture, grilling options (gas & charcoal), watching the wildlife (including six area mature bald eagles - which were recently featured on a PBS documentary), and a fire pit with Adirondack chairs. Note: Brand New Mattresses coming: Winter of 2025!
Inside, you will enjoy a thoroughly clean and tastefully updated home that features beautiful cabinetry, a well-stocked kitchen, new carpets, plenty of activities for a getaway, two 55” TVs with cable, three bedrooms, and one additional common sleeping area with two beds and a bunk bed. With a fantastic cleaner, we often are told the home is the cleanest rental property guests have ever stayed at. With all of the amenities, capacity for this vacation home is eight adults and children. Please note the home is PET-FREE and the indoor fireplace is not available due to insurance reasons.
If you are not enjoying the lake, hot tub, or the beautiful colors (especially in the fall), downtown Manistee and Ludington are not far out of reach. With access to fishing charters, golfing at Manistee National or Arcadia Bluffs, skiing at Crystal Mountain, or exploring the Manistee National Forest, Northern Michigan has it all!
As you will see in our reviews, guests most often comment about their love for Lake Michigan, the broad amenities at the home, the abundance of wildlife/nature, the exceptional cleanliness, and great communication!
Come and see for yourself why Eagle’s Nest is a perfect place for a family getaway, anniversary trip, or reason to use a few vacation days. We’re looking forward to hosting you!

About the host
Hosted by Abigail and Kyle Weener
Our family loves sharing our Manistee properties with others! Kyle works as an elementary principal and I play for a number of Midwest symphonies - as a violinist. Since 2015, we have operated a number of rental properties and a real estate brokerage in Michigan. As a young family (our kids are 5, 1, and a newborn), we know the joy it brings our family and are thrilled when we get to share it with others from around the world!
Why they chose this property
Growing up in Michigan, our family treasured great memories vacationing in the Manistee area. It is our joy to now share this experience with others! Eagle's Nest is one of a few homes along the lakeshore that has beautiful upgrades, strong amenities (a hot tub - to name one), a private beach with steps to Lake Michigan, tremendous nature - including bald eagle's that live next to the property, and a location close to downtown Manistee and not far from Ludington!
What makes this property unique
Some unique benefits include: a beautiful wrap around deck, year-round hot tub, views of Lake Michigan, and rural setting - yet 10 minutes out from downtown Manistee, 15 minutes to Little River Casino, and 25 minutes to Arcadia Bluffs. Don't forget about the hiking trails across the street, fire pit, tons of outdoor furniture, and a home that is in excellent condition!
